[Solved] What is maximum binary string length?

[qwert]

I need to encode a GIF as a variable, but it gets truncated at some point.  I see examples in the help file of assembling a variable from multiple strings (shown below).

The help file says "Binary data can contain up to 2147483647 bytes", but I can't find a similar statement that controls the SciTE string length.

What is SciTE's string limit in characters?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Search 'limits' in the help file. It gives 2,147,483,647 for maximum string length/bytes. I see you found that. I'm not sure about SciTE. I wouldn't attempt to use SciTE for so much data.

SciTE is unaware of stringlengths and only knows filesizes it needs to open.

From the Helpfile: 

  Quote

max.file.size

To avoid accidentally loading huge files on slow media, or just to ensure SciTE is used only to edit human readable code, the user can set the max.file.size property to specify a limit to file loading. If unset or set to 0, there is no limit. If set to a given size in bytes and if a file to load exceeds this limit, the user is asked if the file should be loaded. If accepted, the file is read as usual. If rejected then no action is taken (no file loaded, no buffer created).

Expand  

So, there is no limit set unless you set this option in SciTEUSer.properties.

Hmmm.  I'll have to think about those points.

I tried to assemble my GIF (7,634 bytes) using 3 parts as the example shows.  But I got this message at runtime:

 : ==> Unterminated string.: Local $sBinGIFImage

And, indeed, the reported string doesn't have all the hex digits.

I guess my question is now: How to properly declare the hex representation for a GIF? (... if it's not the way shown for sBinGIFImage?)

So your question is about AutoIt3 .... NOT SciTE!

Just attach the script so we can have a look as to why you get that error.

Here's a very minimal demonstration script.  Even when my function is not called, it fails with the unterminated string error.  If I comment out MyBinGIFImage, the script (with the GIF from the help file) works.

I'm perplexed.

You shouldn't as you have missed another limit in Autoit3 where one single line's max length is 4000.

Ah.  Well, I never found that.  I was fixated on String Length and didn't think of Line Length or Line Size.

I'm glad to see it's a clear and known data case.  I divided my GIF into 5 parts and it worked.

Thanks much!
